The evidence iced at the Coroner's inquest this | rning was not sufficient to justity a rdict of efther suicide or murder. The verdict was death from carbolic acid poisoning. administered in a manner un- known. The theory of suicide is not s | tenabie in the light of the testimony. | | Hatton had no opportunity after his re- | turn home Monday evening to take poison and there was lacking all odor, which | would have been noticeable had he drunk carbolic acid. Some one of the family was with him ail the time from the mo- | ment he arrivzd until he was found dfad | Tuesday morning. The, detectives from Sacramento are still at work on the case and are unable | to find any record of carbolic acid having & wid to Hatton. Hatton was seen in Sacramento several tinies Sunday, but | no trace @f him that night or the next day can be found. The theory now ad- | vanced s that he was given the poison i:\hd robbed in Sacramento Sunday night | and that he lay in a stupor all day Mon- day. regaining ccusclousness In time to | take the train Monday evening for his | home. That the carbolic aeld did not work | quicker 1= due no doubt to the fact that Hattor's stomach contained a quantity of | alcobolic liquor which he fmbibed freely Sunday night and which is an antidote for carbolic acid.

It further investigation proves that no mistake has been made heir names will be dropped from the class roll. X The low senior class was organized | g the election of Ralph | 9 MR High as ciass president, and since that ! iime there have been rumors that 2 tions for the —annual ‘“rough | with the high seniors were un- | der way.

The members of the lower class then retyrned to the school and painted the | class numerals on the walks of the!3 court and in front of the entrance tod the building.

He at once summored the boys of the low senior class from their rooms, and after severely reprimanding them ordered them to once secure some black paint and efface the class uumer- als, which stood out in glaring red. The principal then reported the mat- ter to Superintendent of Schools Mc- lymonds and to Judge Clift, who both began at once the investigation which will probably end in the expulsion of High, Hatfield #nd Oliver. | The members of the high senior class who were captured and impris- oned by the low seniors and afterward led through the streets with their | handé tied have kept very auiet since |: the occurrence, but it has been discov- |a ered that Robert Clark, the leader of the debating team of 1905, and Clifton Brooks, one of the leaders of the high senjor activities. were two of the vlc- tims. Principal Pond, Judge Clift, Super- intendent Mclymonds and Dr. A, H.

OREGON CITY, Jan. 30.—Deralling and perhaps seriously wrecking the northbound Eugene local hetween Bar- low and Canby yesterday morning was only averted by the time- ly warning that was given by a tramp. Discovering a broken rail, presumably resulting from the passing of a heavy freight train, the tramp ran down the track and stopped the approaching local - passenger train within a few feet of the damaged rall. The broken steel was the outer’rail of the track, and the place of the danger was In a elirve of the track about midway between Barlow and Canby. On account of the curve it would have been impossible for the engineer to have stopped his train in time to avoid running over the dangerous rail, which Wwould surely have caused a derail- ment.
